Respuesta :

The correct answer is option E:

The country of Rockonya makes 1 television every 5 hours and 1 car every 20 hours, while the country of Jamonia makes 1 television every 24 hours and 1 car every 12 hours. Rockonya has a Comparative Advantage in making televisions.

A comparative advantage of one country over another in the production of a certain good or service is a special facility with respect to a certain key aspect that the first country has more than the second. In this case, the characteristic to be compared is the greater productivity that Rockonya has in the manufacture of televisions.

An absolute advantage takes into account the quantification of a key aspect for the production of a certain good or service without establishing any comparison with another country.  

In the example it would be: Rockonya has a productivity of 1 TV per day.
